In 1978 the earthworks were described as following; ‘There are old quarry depressions in the side of the hill to the NW of the graveyard.’ Numerous depressions visible on Digital Globe orthoimage taken between 2011-2013 and on Google Earth orthoimages some of which may have been the result of quarrying while other earthworks are related to a field system (LI056-002004-) and others may be related to clustered settlement surrounding Ardpatrick Church and graveyard.
